The latest rejection comes from the Benghazi Defense Brigades, their statement released in both English and Arabic focuses on emphasizing just how involved the UAE is in post Gaddafi Libya. The statement coincidentally coincides with a detailed report on events in Libya that was released by the UN Security Council. The UAE views the Benghazi Defense Brigade is an obstacle in its attempt at dominating Benghazi, the capital of Cyrenaica”. It is worth noting that contradictions are apparent when referencing many of those named on the so-called terror list. Both explicitly stated under oath on the matter of the Benghazi Defense Brigades that they are not considered a terrorist organization nor do they have direct links with AlQaida or their affiliates.
